FASS
Fuel Systems |
FASS-150 series
shown above |
Most
vehicles fuel tanks are mounted at least two feet below and ten feet
away from the fuel pump. This configuration creates multiple problems
associated with the fuel delivery to the engine. First, the injection
pump has to draw the fuel from the tank by creating a vacuum which
produces fuel vapor. Second, while the vehicle is in motion the movement
of the fuel inside the tank causes air to become entrained within
the fuel. By having entrained air and air vapor in the fuel, the engine
does not perform at the manufacturer's specification. Air and fuel
vapor occupy the space that should have pure fuel, thus delaying the
injection of fuel (retarded timing) into the combustion chamber. The
air/vapor present in fuel is very inconsistent, making it virtually
impossible to adapt the varying degrees of changes in injection timing.
The answer to this problem is the FASS kit.

Real
World Conditions - In
the real world, the fuel tanks are usually mounted at least two (2)
feet below and ten (10) feet away from the fuel pump, This configuration
creates multiple problems associated with the fuel delivery to the
engine. First, the injection pump has to draw the fuel from the tank
by creating a vacuum. When diesel fuel is drawn by a vacuum fuel vapor
is produced. Second, while the vehicle is underway the fuel is sloshing
around in the fuel tanks creating entrained air. This circumstance
has created a situation far from the test cell conditions which results
in air and vapor being mixed in with the fuel when it is delivered
to the injector. By having entrained air and air vapor in the fuel
the engine does not perform at the engine manufacturer's specification.
Air and fuel vapor occupy the space that should have pure fuel, thus
delaying the injection of fuel into the combustion chamber. This phenomenon
is better known as "RETARDED TIMING." The air/vapor present
in fuel is very inconsistent making it virtually impossible to adapt
the varying degrees of changes in injection timing. The retarded injections
cause a multitude of problems in the combustion chamber!
FASS Pre-Filter Notice
When the water separator of the FASS Fuel System or the strainer for
the HPFP's is replaced, make sure to replace it with an element consisting
of a 144 micron wire mesh material. We use a stainless steel wire
mesh element to pre-filter, resulting with much less restriction than
a paper element.
We are finding many technical calls relating to restriction issues
cause by the use of improper materials on the suctions side.
Lifetime
Warranty
FASS is pleased to share with you the same confidence that we have
in our product. That is to say, when you buy a FASS or HPFP we are
so sure that it is the best quality you can buy that we’re going
to give you a LIFETIME WARRANTY (on selected part numbers). On your
select model of FASS and HPFP, you can drive off with that feeling
of security. |

- NOTE:
Priming concerns
during FASS installation process.
We
have had a few calls concerning priming the FASS Systems, not
the HPFP's, during the installation process. We have added this
simple procedure to address all concerns, starting with serial
number 15207 for the FASS 150 Series and serial number 2360 for
the FASS 95 Series.

| New
FASS system draw tube location - Note from FASS |
| Before
installing any of the FASS Systems or the HPFP’s that require
the draw tube to be installed from the kit, please refer to the instructions.
We now have a better location to mount the draw tube, which will allow
there to be more usable fuel before running empty.
In
the kits that will allow the move to this better location we have
put a longer bulk head fitting in the kit. This will give the draw
tube the available length to reach the bottom of the tank. Please
follow the instructions accompanying the kit. If you try this new
location with the wrong combination bulk head fitting and draw tube
you may come up short.
I have performed
this on my personal truck; it works great especially when the truck
is low on fuel and you are on a step incline.
Have a great
day!

“Setting
the Standards”
We, at Diesel Performance Products, have over 15 years experience
in building the highest quality Fuel Air Separation Systems and electric
diesel fuel pumps available. It is this experience that has lead us
to use a gerotor specific fuel pump. Our success in the class 8 truck
market has been above the rest. Our pumps typically last around 500,000
+ miles! Since 1994 we’ve made many improvements to increase
life expectancy and dependability. Our confidence is evident in our
warranty. We started off with a 1 year warranty and we now offer up
to a conditional 6 year warranty!!
In 2003 we not only set the standard for diesel fuel pumps in the
pickup truck market, we “KEEP” raising the bar. With over
90% of our machining, and all of our assembly and testing performed
under one roof, we maintain the highest quality standards throughout
the industry. The FASS Systems undergo 25 vigorous tests before being
shipped. Both designs are subjected to numerous tests for your quality
assurance and to maintain the highest standards.
Our R & D department is continually improving the FASS product
line. We realize the design of the FASS product line exceeds performance
and quality expectations. To create this standard, we use one of the
highest grades of aluminum, T6061, as a major component. As you may
already know, we also use motor specific brushes in our electric motors
to maintain the same high quality standard and increase the overall
life of our units. Due to the brute size of our motor armatures we
are able to achieve superior levels of stall torque. The increased
amount of stall torque insures extreme cold weather starts by flowing
gelling fuel.
